Cultural Exchange
There are a number of historical monuments in Russia but the most important ones are those that show us how people lived in the past.
Spotlight on Russia looks at the World Heritage Site of Kizhi
Kizhi is the remains of an ancient Russian settlement from the 16th century. It is on an island in the northern part of Onezhskoye Lake in Karelia. It is a famous tourist attraction because of the beautiful wooden churches and buildings that you can still see there.
The buildings are impressive in size, design and the fact that they were made without the use of a single nail or metal pin. Each piece of wood fits perfectly into the next to form these beautiful architectural masterpieces. The most impressive building is the Transfiguration Church which has 22 domes. It dates from 1714. Then, there is the Intercession Church which has nine domes and was built in 1764. Finally, there is a beautiful wooden bell tower that dates from 1874.
The Soviet government made the site into a museum of wooden architecture in 1960. They moved other beautiful ancient wooden buildings from other parts of Russia here so they could all be in one place together. One of these was the 14th century church of Saint Lazarus from Muromsky Monastery. It is the oldest wooden church in Russia. Thanks to them and to the World Heritage Organisation these beautiful wooden buildings will be preserved for future generations.
There are also a collection of wooden peasants' houses, mills, forges and stables at Kizhi. They each have a display of the tools and household objects that people would have used in the past on display. They allow visitors to get a real taste of life in the past. They offer a glimpse into the past and show that craftsmanship has always been a big part of Russian culture.
